The novel by Alexander Dumas-father had undeniable success,

despite some overabundance of romance, according to some.

But such as they are, like it to someone or not, these characters have become historical.

It was in this context that we revived them on the screen.

BUREAU ON EQUIPMENT OF SHIPS

Gentlemen, great news! He's coming!

"Is this already official?" Yes Yes.

It enters the port. Gentlemen, triple "Hurray!"

Hooray! Hooray!

Mr. Morel, he's coming!

- "Pharaoh"?! - Yes. Go look, it's gorgeous!

- What a joy! - Oh, yes, now I'm calm.

- But I was worried. - I also.

Although we all pretended to be confident of success.

"Dad, is this our ship?" - Yes.

His ship! You heard that, huh?

"Can I look in the telescope?" "Go, it's on my desk."

Papa, where does this ship sail from?

From India, my dear.

He spent several weeks at sea, passed through all the storms,

He carries a load of spices and valuable nuts.

"So I'll get the presents?" "Whatever you like, dear!"

The ship carries us real wealth. Now if it sank...

Do not think about it, since he's already here.

Dad, why is there a black flag on the mast?

Wait, let's see.

A black flag is raised if the ship loses a member of the team on a campaign.

Maximilian is right - they lost a man in the sea.

On Marsa-gitovy! Cleaver-niral! On the mizzen sheet!

Anchor to produce it!

Sails to gitovy!

Shkot give!

The whole team is working, you are resting alone!

I'm sick.

The pennant is lowered to half,

tie a flag with a knot!

"And while your work is being done by others!" "It's not my fault that I fell ill."

Rei cross!

Come down with me to my cabin. We need to explain ourselves.

Too late to explain.

But it's more in your interests than in mine.

Come on.

So, this heat does not allow you to stand?

I do not know, my stomach is burning.

At you thus is everything, that this fire to extinguish.

It's your own business, Caderousse.

Only since we lost our captain,

you are sitting idly by! "I will not follow your orders!"

I had a title, you were nobody. The captain was to replace me!

But the team refused to trust you with the command.

And - I have nothing to do with it - she chose me to command "Pharaoh".

You managed to tune them against me!

They felt that you were stronger, and you used it.

Ha! Who at your age will refuse to be a captain?

But it was not by the rules!

And now, when you have to explain with Mr. Morel, you have begun to doubt.

I see you through.

I'll make you a royal offer.

You agree to tell Mr. Morel,

that you refused the command because you were sick?

Are you kidding?!

So you prefer that I tell the truth?

What did the team refuse from you because you were drunk from morning till night?

Drunk in an insole every night? "If you say so..."

The choice is yours.

Come in!

Captain! Mr. Morel got on board.

Well thank you.

Made a choice?

Naturally. But this is blackmail.

As you wish.

The team will testify, and Mr. Morel will form his opinion.

The rest will say how you are.

So for me it's better to say that I was sick and...

and that I myself refused the command.

Good.

I give you my word.

Hello, Mr. Morel. "Good evening, Caderousse." Captain at home?

Yes... Captain, ha!

He's got me, Captain! Ugh!

But I will take revenge.

Where and how did this misfortune happen to him?

He died of a nervous fever.

He suffered for 3 days and died in my arms.

All the details I wrote down in the logbook.

Yes... And how did you take command?

Well, here... Caderousse was sick, and he refused.

The team chose me. And, thanks to the devotion of everyone and the Lord's help,

the return was not too difficult.

I think, dear Dantes, the team made the right choice.

All the people on board are my friends.

- And you all were satisfied? - All without exception.

Well, then they all will get a good bonus.

And... what about the cargo?

Sign in.

Excuse me, Mr. Morel, but here they ask the captain.

The one who is very happy with his return!

- My father? - Yes.

Will you, Mr. Morel? He's old. I was afraid, I will not even see him.

Go, hug him. And tell me that he can be proud of you.

I do not wish to diminish the merits of Captain Leclerc,

but it seems to me, "Pharaoh" in good hands?

What do you think, Penelan? Always exemplary, always in a good mood.

With him, people are confident in themselves.

In discipline, he is a bit strict. But it's fair.

My baby!

You've been gone so long! Just to go round half the world.

But you have not changed at all. "Oh, he has changed!"

I'm quite old.

But since the "Pharaoh" returned to Marseilles, I became younger for 10 years!

So imagine what became of me!

And... Mercedes?

Dantes told me that you were ill?

I got a fever because of the bad water that I drank.

It's a pity. You missed the opportunity to demonstrate your abilities.

Well, I'll introduce myself. But your damage, Mr. Morel, is very large.

"My damage?" Delay for 10 days is expensive.

If I were at the helm, this would not happen.

But you could not make the weather better.

No. But we would not have strolled to the island of Elba.

What for? "Pharaoh" made a stop on the island of Elba?

Yes. Fantasy of Mr. Dantes.

For sure, Napoleon invited him to dine,

to have a little fun.

"Dantes did not say anything to me." It does not surprise me.

It is much easier to explain the delay of bad weather.

Naturally, I'm not saying this at the expense of Dantes.

Yes? And here, just, and he.

Caderousse gave you a list of goods on board?

I was just telling Mr. Morel that you gave it to me. He's downstairs.

So go for him, please. It is needed for customs.

Yes, Captain.

Did he tell you about his illness?

He said that he was poisoned by bad water.

Does it deserve leniency?

- Maybe. - And tell me,

It seems that Caderousse dislikes you?

He undoubtedly reproaches me for using the opportunity.

It's so natural. I forgive him.

I think he has no other claims? No no.

But you did not explain to me the reason for your being late.

It's true. I visited the island of Elba for 3 days.

Yes, but for what reason?

Well... before his death.

Captain Leclair handed me an envelope to take him to Elba Island.

It was evident that it was very important for him that this was done.

And to reassure him, I swore I would do it myself.

Who will reproach me for the oath given to the dying man?

Precisely not me, my dear Dantes.

Tell me, will you go ashore?

No, I have to attend the customs visit.

All the papers are in order. But, excuse me, I can not stay.

I can not wait, really... can not wait to embrace someone.

- A! And when is the wedding? - ABOUT...

At least today - dinner on the engagement. By the way,

it will be a great honor for us if you agree to be our guest.

With great pleasure, my dear. Thank you.

All our relatives and friends will be there. I'll be glad to introduce you to Mercedes!

It's unreasonable, it's not serious!

We are cousins, only friendship is possible between us.

Demanding more, you lose time, my poor Fernand.

You say so, as if I am the master of my feelings!

Then swear to me that I will not see you again.

Wherever you are, I'll follow you!

I'm very patient.

But I can be cruel if they refuse me!

I know. But I do not care.

My answer, as before, is no!

I have ambitions. And I will succeed!

One day I will become very rich, very powerful, I'm sure!

And then, Mercedes, you will regret me!

I will then be married to a loved one,

I will have beautiful, I hope, children,

and I will be very glad that you will become...

By the way, who do you want to become?

A general? A banker? Cardinal?

In the latter case, avoid hasty marriage.

OK OK... Scoff at my illusions?

I do not scoff at yours. "Over illusions?"

You still hope for the return of Dantes.

After a six-month absence!

Do you have any news?

Yes, even if he is alive, maybe he stopped loving you?
